Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 246

“That’s why he had to treat Daphne special,” Kieran told Julie.

Who knew Mr. Lionel had such a big secret up his sleeve? No wonder he couldn’t make a promise to Daphne at first.

Julie turned to Kieran, “Is Mr. Lionel still planning to fulfill the contract?”

“After leaming from our mistakes, Lionel won’t be making any rash decisions like I did. He might tell Daphne the truth, and they’ll face the issues together,” he said.

As Mr. Hernandez admitted his own faults, Julie began to reflect, “I was also too sensitive.”

Speaking of sensitivity, Julie suddenly remembered something that happened one drunken night….

Thinking of that scene, for some reason, she felt guilty and her mouth went dry.

After a mental struggle, she finally gathered the courage to say to Kieran, “Honey, there’s something…”

“Lionel is pretty sharp, he could still recognize Daphne all wrapped up like that!” Ivan pointed at the TV screen, somewhat excited.

Before Julie could finish her sentence, she quickly followed Kieran’s gaze to the TV.

On screen, Daphne had almost completely covered her face, yet Lionel recognized her right away.

Daphne tried to leave with her parents, but was stopped by Lionel.

“Daphne? Where are you going?” Mr. Lionel just finished his sentence when Alaric stepped forward, grabbed Lionel’s hand, and threw him to the ground.

Lionel clearly didn’t expect Alaric to make a move, he was completely unprepared and fell hard to the ground.

The director was so scared he shouted, “Cut, cut, cut! Turn off the camera now!”

Lionel’s assistant rushed up to help him up. His stylish black suit was now covered in dust.

Daphne realized things had gotten out of hand and quickly grabbed Alaric’s hand, whispering into his ear, “Dad… we’re live on air!”

That’s when Alaric snapped back to reality, noticing several cameras pointed at him.

Alaric had a temper, and even though he felt embarrassed for a moment, he couldn’t swallow the fact that Lionel had irresponsibly gotten his daughter pregnant.

After hearing the director’s order to turn off the camera, he grabbed Lionel by the collar, “You, come here!”
